Kangpokpi, September 19 2022:
AMFA Cup team Kuki Sporting Club (KSC) will meet MSL team Sagolband United in the final of the Len and Sang Trophy 2022 on Tuesday at Brig M Thomas Ground, Kangpokpi district headquarters.
A narrow 1-0 win over Churachandpur's Symropia Football Club in Monday's first semifinal match earned KSC a final berth to set the title clash with Sagolband United who defeated Twilang Area Sporting Association (TASA) 2-1 in the second final match.
KSC's Lunminthang shone bright as he scored the important goal in the 75th minute.
In an action-packed second semifinal match between TASA and Sagolband United, Bhagirath was quick enough to find an early opener in the 2nd minute which was followed by multiple on-target shots giving intense pressure to the local club with former ISL player Subhash as the playmaker for Sagolband United.
In the last few minutes of the second half, Subhash found the second goal for the MSL team in the 87th minute and TASA managed to pull back a goal through Peter Minthang in the 88th minute but it was already too late for the team to find the equaliser.
The closing ceremony of the month-long mega football tournament will begin at 12 noon on Tuesday.
